Written Answers. - National Competitiveness Council.

John Bruton

Question:

5 Mr. J. Bruton asked the Taoiseach the reports or recommendations, if any, he has received from the National Competitiveness Council which reports to him. [2360/98]

The National Competitiveness Council, established in May 1997 by the last Government, will submit its first report shortly.

The report will give a review of Ireland's competitive position and it has two purposes: it will identify priority areas for action to improve competitiveness; and it will provide reference material for policy makers, to help further refine the actions needed in all areas of policy to improve Ireland's competitiveness.

It is expected that the report will cover four main areas of action: human resource development; business services; infrastructure and public finance and administration.
